E.118 - When Your Partner's Relationship Becomes Serious with Stephanie Symonds-Smith

E.118 - When Your Partner's Relationship Becomes Serious with Stephanie Symonds-Smith

We are lucky enough to be joined in this episode by listener Stephanie Symonds-Smith on her BIRTHDAY, and her bubbly personality shines through as we laugh our way through a fantastic conversation.

Stephanie shares her story and background, including her ambition to become a sex coach and some history on her polycule. She introduces us to her constellation, including her husband, their partner, and a couple that she dates!

Recently Stephanie's husband and their partner have become closer, and Stephanie shares her lived experience as she lived through that transition. She shares how her communication with her husband had to improve even though she is more likely to want to talk about challenges in their relationship, whereas he is more likely to ruminate on his own.

We also talk about how she learned to go against her natural inclinations to pry, and give her partners the space and time to think things over and come to her when they're ready.

This was definitely a fun episode that touched on a bunch of different topics, and Stephanie left us with some great personal stories and lessons learned.
